D btry 3bn 84th FA

D Battery, 3rd Battalion, 84th Field Artillery (D/3-84 FA) was a unit within the U.S. Army’s field artillery branch, most notably active during the Cold War period. Stationed in Germany, the 3rd Battalion, 84th Field Artillery was part of the 56th Field Artillery Brigade and later the 56th Field Artillery Command, providing nuclear-capable support with Pershing missile systems. D Battery played a critical role in NATO’s deterrence strategy against the Warsaw Pact, maintaining constant readiness and participating in numerous field exercises. The unit was inactivated following the signing of the Intermediate-Range Nuclear Forces (INF) Treaty in 1987, which led to the removal of Pershing missiles from Europe.
